f(0)->y=1/2
f(-1)->y=0

Explanation:

Suppose x=0 then wherever there is an x write 0

f(x)=1/2(x+1) color(white)("ddd")-> color(white)("ddd")f(0)=1/2(0+1)=1/2

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Suppose x=-1 then wherever there is an x write -1

f(x)=1/2(x+1) color(white)("ddd")-> color(white)("ddd")f(0)=1/2[color(white)(2/2)(-1)+1color(white)("d")]=0
